Water waves can be used to visualize fundamental concepts, such as spin angular momentum, that arise in relativistic field theory, RIKEN physicists have shown 1. This will help to provide new insights ...

a) In a weak magnetic field, broad cyclotron orbits suppress the orbital contribution, allowing spin polarization to dominate, (b) In strong magnetic fields, tight cyclotron orbits enhance orbital ...

Orbital angular momentum has the potential to transfer, manipulate and store information. They are made from the orbital angular momentum of electrons orbiting their atomic nucleus – and the study of ...
